Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Prohibition the Principle, the Policy and the Party, a Dispassionate Study of the Arguments for and Against Prohibitory Law, and the Reasons Governing the Political Action of Its Advocates, Vol. 1 "No legislation founded on unsound principles can accomplish a permanent good, whatever be the present seeming" - Preface to Bishop´s Statutory Crimes. "Men are four," says an Arabic proverb: "He who knows not, and knows not he knows not. He is a fool; shun him. "He who knows not, and knows he knows not. He is simple; teach him. "He who knows, and knows not he knows. He is asleep; wake him. "He who knows, and knows that he knows. He is wise; follow him." The only difficulty with this, as with so many other wise deliverances, lies in its application. For it frequently happens that the man who knows not that he knows not, and the man who knows that he knows, manifest the same characteristics, being equally positive and equally sincere. In emphasis in assertion is to be sole guide in deciding the righteousness of a cause, we shall be forced generally to conclude that each side is right.
